The Origin Of Cemeteries.

Perhaps the Turks were the first TO use
the ornamental burying grounds known
as cemeteries, but we can not say in
what year. The Jews used to bury their
dead under the earth, and this mode
seems 10 have been the earliest in use.
Egypt embalmed her corpses, and the
earlier Greeks and Romans consumed
the body, after death, by fire, the ashes
only receiving sepulture. Subsequently
in those nations, this practice fell into
disuse, at least partially, and then their
dead bodies were buried in vaults or
chambers under ground, such as the
catacombs. In ancient Rome the bodies
Of her most illustrious sons were permit
ed TO be buried unburned, as a special
mark of favor, within the walls of the
city.
The next step was the erection oi
churches over the graves OF martyrs.
Then emperOrs and kings were admitted
10 sarcophagi within the church walis.
The cxtenuion Of this practice was the
o-igin OF church yards. These, in crowd
ed towns, herame unhealthy and often
siye aud sanitary measures demanded
burial without the walls OF the city.
Thus grew the beautiful resting places
Of the d.ad, which, with their trees,
flowers, landscape, gardening and works
of monumental art, We call cemeteries
The word cemetery" by the way,
means slumbcr-plaee, and IL Of Christian
origin. Some cemeteries are "consecra-
ted" by the rites Of a church; others are
sacred only by the dust Of those

A CatskitI Romance.

Ten years ago a handsome man Of a
dignifed bearing and refined appearance
passed through Catskill and took up his
abode in a deserted cabin two miles and
a half from High Falls, Greene county.
Here he lived like hermit. A beauti-
ful dog which accompanied the stranger
into the woods died about FIVE years ago,
and the fashionable clothes which the
recluse wore when he made his retreat
were replaced by coarse fabrics and strong
country shoes. Twice each year the her
init was visited by woman OF graceful
form and easy manners, who always
dressed in black and was closely veiied
No one knew who this woman was or
whence she came. She remained with
the hermit about an hour, and for three
or four days after her departure the re"
cluse remained within his cabin. When
at last he appeared he looked much sad
der and more aged than before. Tuesday
morning the cabin was found in ashes.
The hermit was not 10 be found. His
mysterious visitor called upon him about
q week ago. He may have burned with
the cabin, but there is no trace Of him
to be found Albany Journal.
